    The 2nd Amendment shouldn't apply to anybody who is not part of a WELL-REGULATED militia. In 21st century America, that's the National Guard and nobody else.

    Militia is all able bodied military age citizens of the USA who are not enlisted in the regular military.

    An Obama appointed judge just ruled 2nd amendment applies to illegals.

    The Amendment SPECIFICALLY states a well-regulated militia. Not a rabble in arms. A bunch of untrained citizens running around armed to the teeth with blood in its collective eye isn't a well-regulated militia, it's a mob.

    It is not a requirement to be in a well regulated Militia to be allowed to keep and bare arms. 

    It is stating part of the reason for the right of the PEOPLE  to keep and bare arms.  If it comes to needing to ask the militia to step up and help the enlisted military, they do not want to have to train them completely: how to hold a firearm safely, how to aim and shoot, etc. 

    • A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.

      Or as we speak today:
      The right of the people to keep and bare arms shall not be infringed  BECAUSE  as well-regulated militia is necessary to secure a free State. 


    The first 10 amendments are the Bill of Rights and they are to limit the government and protect individual rights.

    Nope. The Second was snuck in there because the fledgeling nation couldn't afford to employ and equip a regular army. They called upon state militias in the War of 1812, again in the Civil War, and finally in the War of 1898.
    The Second has been an anachronism since the First World War. Today's United States has the best funded and equipped military on the planet. And the majority of gun owners today are completely incapable of forming part of a WELL-REGULATED militia - following orders is absolutely a requirement and most won't do it.

    NO...non-US citizens, illegal or otherwise should not be granted ANY constitutional rights.
